I use WIFI 80% of the time and live in a rural area (No cell signal) The price is the main draw for me I set up auto pay and Tello always give me a notice before and after payment. The ability to change the plan or cancel with no problems is great. I have no problems but haven't had much interaction with Customer Service enough for a full review.

Easy to Use

Easy to set up, easy to change later, the service even reaches me in Amish country (Ethridge, Tennessee). If I'm a little late to renew I don't instantly lose my number. The rates are really cheap with no catch. The simplest time I've ever had with a phone plan. It's so good I felt it was only fair I give a review when asked so I could share my own experience with it. All around a no-fuss affair.
